 * The forums show unresolved issues with this plugin. Still, I tried it. Only to
   find it doesn’t work.
 * I installed YOURLS on a new domain. It was up and running without problems. Then
   I installed this plugin and found it only generates short URLS for new posts.
   I have thousands of old posts. The only option I could find to resolve that was
   to edit each post and save it. And that suggestion was by a plugin user, not 
   the author (who had ignored those forum posts for months).
 * Since I had no intention of editing that many posts just to get YOURLS short 
   URLs generated for each one, I removed the plugin, removed YOURLS, and installed
   JetPack instead–which generated wp.me short URLs without incident and for new
   and old posts.
